51 Chevy

That's another great looking car model! I really admire the chrome work, and seeing the window trim done so nicely reminds me of why I don't build car models-I could never get that trim looking like that! Beauty!

A high school buddy's Dad bought one of these when we were freshmen, I guess. No, a real one, in black. We tooled around in that sleek "fastback" soaking up that retro-vibe, including that old, damp felt smell of the upholstery and headliner.

Very cool car model!

Thanks. With the advent of bare metal foil trim is relatively easy.

Same kit, different body. There's a convertible version too. Mine is a Fleetline, but it's the same as a Bel air, just a fastback variant.

Very nice!!

I've been eyeing both '51 Fleetline and the Bel Air to customize both. They'd be awesome with moonie rims and a big engine under the hood.

I actually have a street machine version in the works... some day
